Meh.  A filename choice of 'esrc.h', 'enetunreac.h', 'ehostunreac.h', 
etc may provide an entertaining debugging session for the coder 
unfortunate enough to use those filenames :)

If you feel strongly against what's on the wiki though, there's always 
an 'Edit This Page' button, where you can change it :)

The only reason I made a separate page for 'Library Headers' was because 
it was a 20-ish line snippet condensed onto one line and I thought it 
needed more explanation and a screenshot.

That being said, as above, use the 'Edit this Page' button if you want 
to shuffle stuff around and/or remove superfluous text or whatever.

I'm not sure how that would work with file templates, since the 'real' 
filename is unknown at the time it's created, unless I misunderstand. 
Maybe better would be to make a litte Add-on plugin: 'Insert Header' or 
similar.
